Vendetta Red - Temple of the Winged Serpent lyrics

Truths revealed in a whispered secret desperate hopes of a child's prayer Willing prey for the winged serpent high priest bows to the golden chair Dagger poised, utters incantation drains the child of life Innocence splayed upon the altar a worthy sacrifice “i speak no heresy pharaoh no words of blasphemy i live only to worship oh bringer of rain” Virgins dance in a whirling circle, eunuchs heavenly voices sing Gifts for a silent gods approval under the gaze of the golden king Palaces of forgotten kingdoms buried under the sand Dig your fingers into forever a miracle in your hand “vast our desert bleeds pharaoh. with these humble offerings, the famine is over oh bringer of rain” “faceless child your blood will bring the favor of the gods” Rivers of fire plague from the sky they come for your children thieves in the night dream in terror run forever screaming, burning, drowning, crying, falling, bleeding, choking, dying
